Hi folks,
I've been a sometime lurker here for a while and have been impressed enough to sign up and post. I've been interested in craft skills, forestry, landscape interpretation, bushcraft and all sorts of related subjects for many years, but am only recently doing anything about it. I've done a basic bushcraft course, along with basic coppicing and I will be doing some basic hedgelaying this winter.
Like all of you who began to tread this path I am seeing the world around me through new eyes every day, whether it was the realisation that I had identified my first animal trail, lit my first fire or recognised a new tree.
As my username suggests, I have discovered the delights of natural string and cordage, and am currently leaving trails of fibres around the house!
I'm sure I will learn shedloads from just reading what others have to say, but you never know; one day I might just be able to contribute something myself...
